Larry Mullen, Jr. (b. October 31, 1961)
(Alias: Duke Dalton, Babyface Mullens)
Larry was born and raised in Artane, located the north side of Dublin, at 60 Rosemont Avenue.
He had to add the "Junior" to the end of his name to distinguish himself from his father, Larry Mullen, Sr. As Larry's career blossomed, so did his tax bills and his father was the unlucky recipient of them
Larry's past gigs included playing drums for the Post-Office Workers Union Band and the Artane Boys' Band. He even played at the St. Patrick's Day Parade in O'Connell Street.
Larry began drumming in 1971, taking classes with Ireland's best-known drummer, Joe Bonnie. However, Larry has said that his drumming style is "unteachable" and that spirit and instinct are what guides his drumming style.
His sister, Cecilia, bought him his first drum-kit in 1973 for £17. He placed a notice at the infamous Mount Temple Comprehensive School in the fall of 1976, and his life has not been the same since.
Although everyone knows the band as U2, Larry claims that the band's name is really "The Larry Mullen Band." His award-winning career has been plagued with a battle with tendonitis, which has been curbed by specially designed drumsticks.
Known for his love of Harley Davidson, he has been known to drive his Harley from gig to gig, clocking over 10,000 miles on the Zoo TV tour alone. He is also known for his fandom for Elvis Presley.
Although Larry takes a no-bull attitude, he does have quite a sense of humor. He is known to play pranks on people, as well as stealing the spotlight with a karaoke machine.
He has a partner, Anne, and 2 children. He has also been a dog owner, thanking his dogs JJ and Missy on past albums.
